Kyoto Nishiki Market Private Tour with Matcha Experience

Discover the heart of Kyoto’s food culture on a private guided tour through the famous Nishiki Market, known as “Kyoto’s Kitchen.” Your local guide will take you through narrow alleys filled with traditional shops offering everything from pickles and tamagoyaki (Japanese omelet) to unique Kyoto ingredients that have been loved for generations. After enjoying your shopping, visit Nishiki Tenmangu Shrine, a hidden gem located at the end of the market, where you can experience a peaceful moment of prayer. Then, return to your hotel with your purchases and enjoy a cozy meal together — our Japanese staff will prepare steamed rice and miso soup, so you can savor your market finds at a relaxed pace. To finish the experience, you’ll be served matcha green tea and a traditional Japanese sweet, the perfect ending to a flavorful and cultural journey through Kyoto.
